Hi,
RB112 has only 16MB RAM, RB153 or RB532 has 32MB, and RB532A has 64 MB. Does it mean :

  • RB112 only enough for plain router/bridge, no
    queues, firewall, OSPF, etc.
  • RB153 or 532 could do the above tasks until certain level
  • RB532A is more flexible
    Please advise.

Any information we can learn to calculate the required RAM ?

Thanks
